Checking in as 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Syrah, 11% Malbec, and 3% Cabernet Franc, the 2018 Red Blend Black Label offes a slightly closed, earthy style that reveals medium to full-bodied notes of black and blue fruits, damp earth, chocolate, truffle, and leafy herbs. It’s rich and has plenty of tannins, nicely integrated acidity, and outstanding length. It’s going to benefit from 2-4 years in the cellar and drink well for a decade or more.
